密呪圓因往生集 1.62

1.62

《莊嚴寶王經》云：「此六字大明，是觀自在菩薩微妙本心。若人持誦此呪，於持誦時有九十殑伽河數如來、微塵菩薩集會，天龍藥叉虛空神等而來衛護，七代種族皆得解脫，腹中諸蟲當得不退菩薩之位。又若依法念誦，是人則得無盡辯才，清淨智聚及大慈悲，日日得具六波羅蜜圓滿功德。是人口中所出之氣觸在人身，蒙所觸者，即起慈心離諸嗔毒，當得不退菩薩，疾證阿耨菩提。若以此呪戴持之者，則同如來金剛之身，以手觸於餘人之身，其蒙所觸者及所見有情，皆速得入菩薩之位，而永不受生老病死愛別離苦。又如滿四大洲男女等人，一切皆得七地菩薩之位。彼菩薩眾所有功德，與念此呪一遍功德而無有異。若人書寫此六字大明陀羅尼，則同書寫八萬四千法藏而無有異。若人以天金寶造作如微塵數如來形像，不如書寫此六字中一字功德。若有得此六字大明，是人貪嗔癡毒不能染著。其有戴持在身中者，是人亦不染著貪嗔癡病。」

The Kāraṇḍavyūha Sūtra says: "This Six-Syllable Great Vidya is the subtle and wondrous fundamental mind of Avalokiteśvara Bodhisattva. If someone recites and upholds this mantra, at the time of recitation, Tathāgatas numbering ninety Ganges rivers and bodhisattvas [as numerous as] dust motes will assemble; devas, nāgas, yakṣas, space deities, and the like will come to protect them; seven generations of their lineage will all attain liberation; and the worms within their belly will attain the stage of non-retrogressing bodhisattvas. Furthermore, if one recites it according to the Dharma, that person will obtain inexhaustible eloquence, a heap of pure wisdom, and great compassion, and day by day will come to possess the perfect merits of the six pāramitās. If the breath issuing from this person's mouth touches another person's body, whoever is touched will immediately give rise to a compassionate mind, be freed from all poisons of anger, become a non-retrogressing bodhisattva, and swiftly realize anuttarā samyaksambodhi. If one wears and holds this mantra, one is equivalent to the vajra body of a Tathāgata; if one touches another person's body with one's hand, those who are touched, as well as the sentient beings seen, will all swiftly enter the stage of a bodhisattva and will never again undergo the sufferings of birth, old age, sickness, death, and separation from loved ones. Furthermore, if the men, women, and others filling the four great continents were all to attain the stage of seventh-ground bodhisattvas, all the merits of that assembly of bodhisattvas would be no different from the merit of reciting this mantra once. If someone writes out this Six-Syllable Great Vidya Dhāraṇī, it is no different from writing out the eighty-four thousand Dharma treasuries. If someone uses heavenly gold and jewels to fashion images of Tathāgatas as numerous as dust motes, it is not equal to the merit of writing out a single syllable among these six syllables. If someone obtains this Six-Syllable Great Vidya, the poisons of greed, anger, and delusion cannot defile them. Whoever wears and holds it upon their body will likewise not be afflicted by the diseases of greed, anger, and delusion."
